About Birmingham

Birmingham - these can be as cheap as £2 from London! Once you're in Birmingham, grab a train to Stratford or, alternatively, catch a coach from Birmingham coach station with Johnson's coaches - £5.20 for a single, £6.20 for a return.Driving/parking: You can work out how to get here, but it's parking that can really get you in Stratford. For short term parking, try a few residential streets that are perhaps a 10 minute walk from the centre - some will allow you to park for 2 hours for free as a non-resident, while others(e.g. around Sanctus Road) seemingly have no restrictions. Of course, always check! Where you stay might have somewhere to park for free. For cheap parking, this spot on Birmingham Road (near No 1 Shakespeare Street) offers £3 parking all day. If you're looking for something more secure, Bridgeway Multi Storey car park is free for the first hour, going to £10 for 24 hours.Places to Stay

By train: A single off-peak train ticket from Birmingham is currently £7.50, or £7.60 for a same-day return. Birmingham is just 45 minutes away by train, and from many UK locations you'll possibly need to change in Birmingham anyway. My advice is firstly to check www.thetrainline.com for ticket prices - you'll see that travelling at certain times is much, much cheaper than others.
